Diamond Dogs Forever is a one-shot story detailing the final moments of a dying Diamond Dog soldier in the middle of battle, and how he views his role in it all.
With each role, you can expect less than 30 words each - the Narrator has more, obviously - as it is a short one-shot, but that doesn't mean to skimp on the emotion. This one-shot is suppose to be emotional. You may be required to perform background SFX for your character if requested. I.E. Pained grunts or gasps for air.
All characters listed are characters ready to be voiced RIGHT NOW.
VOICE REQUIREMENTS
Multiple takes are encouraged (2-3) for each audition line but NOT required!

CAST TO CN Voice Actor, BenSidious.
Pretty self explanatory. The Narrator is the most important role in the story, as they convey to the reader/listener exactly what is occurring within the story. This role is not for the lazy, and you will be required to show emotion and impact with each word without becoming both overbearing or unbelievable.
Male Auditioners: No light/young voices.
Female Auditioners: No young voices.
I am The Narrator. It is my job to relay to you the story as it stands. A short one it may be, a sad one it will be. It is my job to convey every emotion, every tragedy, and every last bit of feeling in this story to you, the reader and listener.
Raging Capybara is the main character of this one-shot. An Arabic man, a victim of the Soviet Scorched Earth Campaign, he was rescued by Big Boss during one his own missions and recruited into Diamond Dogs. Loyal to the end to his saviors, he manages to alert the base to an attack by a rival PF even as he bleeds to death behind what is now enemy lines.
(Engaging Enemy Combatants) Hostiles!
(Comforting Dying Comrade) Stay with me, are you gonna let this kill you?!
(Throwing a Frag Grenade) Frag out!
Where would a MGS Fanfic be without Big Boss? Big Boss is the leader of Diamond Dogs and the main player character in MGSV: The Phantom Pain. In the story, he serves as the hero to the main character, Raging Capybara, and appears in a minor flashback to when Big Boss rescued him in the field.
I think Big Boss is iconic enough I don't need to put down a vocal example.
Kept you waiting, huh?
Kazuhira Miller, or just Kaz/Miller, is the XO of Diamond Dogs. In the role of the story, he fufills the role of command, otherwise known as CP, directing Diamond Dog soldiers to the defense of Mother Base.

(Honestly, say whatever you want for this audition. I'm curious as to what people will say)
Emerald Hound is a security guard for Diamond Dogs aboard Mother Base. During Kill Count's late-night invasion of the R&D Platform, she is one of the first responders to the combat alert. Taking up a riot shield, she attempts to rally her comrades and spearhead a counter attack, only to be bulls-eyed between the eyes by an accurate sniper.
(Engaging Enemy Combatants) Hostiles!
(Switching Positions During Gunfight) Cover me! I'm moving up!
(Throwing a Frag) Eat this!
Queequeg is a helicopter pilot for Diamond Dogs, serving as a backup to Pequod. His role in the story is a combat support helicopter laying down heavy fire from the air upon advancing Kill Count soldiers.
(In Flight - Launching Air-To-Ground missiles) Rocket salvo incoming!
(In Flight - Beginning Strafing Run) Beginning attack run! Heads down! Heads down!
(In Flight - Aborting Said Strafing Run)Taking fire from all directions! Aborting strafing run!
